Help with Verizon FIOS STB - PCM Stereo output

Help! Verizon FIOS TV cannot solve my problem and Motorola won't. I have a Motorola QIP 6416-2 HD/DVR STB for main TV and also a 6200-2 for BR TV. I cannot get a PCM audio signal output from either the S/PDIF coaxial output or the Optical output. I have tried running both into my DAC with the Audio setting on the STB at both Stereo and Mono, and all I get is loud static, leading me to believe the audio signal being output is only 5.1

Does anyone know: (1) whether these STB's in fact output PCM stereo audio signals, and if so, (2) how do I get STB to do so? I never had this problem with my Direct TV STB and am now sorry I switched to Verizon FIOS.

Thank you.

Neal
